Happy Healthy Cat Month: Show the World You Love Your Cat(s)

Happy Healthy Cat Month

Did you know September is Happy Healthy Cat Month? (Sorry, I’m a week late in letting you know.) But it’s not too late to have a little fun.

Recently, the cat lovers at Meow Mix ran the Purrfect Together Survey, which asked cat lovers from all around about their special bond with their furry little people. (Cats are people too, you know.)

Here are some of the meow-nificent results:

83% of cats take naps with their humans

Isn’t this sad? I’m not referring to the fact that 83% of people love taking naps with their cats. I’m talking about that 17% who are missing out on the joy of napping with their cats. So sad.

80% of cat parents believe they can interpret their kitty’s meows

People and cats speak a different language, but a purr is a purr is a purr, right? It can only mean peace, happiness and content. And most of us understand what our cats’ meows mean: it has to be either food, treats, cat nip, or just to cuddle up with you on the couch.

72% of cat parents love to surprise their kitties with treats

Speaking of treats, nothing makes a cat happier than some spontaneous, unexpected goodies from the person who cares for them the most.

55% of cats love chicken-flavored nibbles

Who wouldn’t? But we have some exciting news! Meow Mix has just released a brand new cat food made with real chicken or salmon. It’s called Bistro Recipes—a classy meal for a classy cat!

How about a classy painting to go with that classy meal? Take a picture of you and your cat, and while you’re at the Purrfect Together portal, you can convert that photo into a magnificent Meowsterpiece! You’ll get a digital “oil” painting that helps express and immortalize your cat-love on canvas. I did it, and you should too! Check it out!

(This is me with my Jessie Cat on my lap, and Shirley the Bearded Dragon on my shoulder.)

Now it’s time to show me how special your human-cat bond is! Post your Meowsterpiece on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram with the hashtag #PurrfectTogether. Be sure to share your thoughts in the comments below.
